1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

One of the most robust synthetic lethal interactions observed in multiple functional genomic screens has been the dependency on protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) in cancer cells with MTAP deletion. We report the discovery of the clinical stage MTA-cooperative PRMT5 inhibitor AMG 193, which preferentially binds PRMT5 in the presence of MTA and has potent biochemical and cellular activity in MTAP-deleted cells across multiple cancer lineages. In vitro, PRMT5 inhibition induces DNA damage, cell cycle arrest, and aberrant alternative mRNA splicing in MTAP-deleted cells. In human cell line and patient-derived xenograft models, AMG 193 induces robust antitumor activity and is well tolerated with no impact on normal hematopoietic cell lineages. AMG 193 synergizes with chemotherapies or the KRAS G12C inhibitor sotorasib in vitro and combination treatment in vivo substantially inhibits tumor growth. AMG 193 is demonstrating promising clinical activity, including confirmed partial responses in patients with MTAP-deleted solid tumors from an ongoing phase 1/2 study. Significance: AMG 193 preferentially inhibits the growth of MTAP-deleted tumor cells by inhibiting PRMT5 when in complex with MTA, thus sparing MTAP wild-type normal cells. AMG 193 shows promise as a targeted therapy in a clinically defined patient population.
